Don't Compare Yourself to Leon Black Who Bought "The Scream" for $120 Million

 Novelist and screenwriter F. Scott Fitzgerald was obsessed with The Rich. His famous 1926 quote had been "the rich are different from you and me." That bothered him. 

The gap between where he was financially and in status, power and influence and where they were could have fueled his drinking problem. Ironically, Fitzgerald was established enough in his niche to be celebrated at his death in The New York Times. He was 44 and some speculated it was the result of boozing. 

The Tarot card which captures that desolation of comparing ourselves with others (supposedly better off) is the Five of Wands. That's the kind of response some might be having today when they read in The Wall Street Journal that billionaire Leon Black ponied up $120 million for the painting "The Scream." They could balk at spending $120 on a good meal with a friend. 

The comparison is made without data. No one has any idea what goes on in Black, including his inner life. Probably he doesn't even know. Our human selves usually are an enigma, even to ourselves. That's why every generation produces its own artists to interpret, as Zorba the Greek put it, The Full  Catastrophe. Also, since the 14th century those struggling for some self-awareness have been showing up for Tarot readings. The New York Times salutes the Tarot as a tool for self-awareness.

Painful Long Half-Life of Trauma: Did Prince William Marry His Mother?

Image
  It was September 6, 1997. A number of psychics such as myself entered a grief trance. We became one with the trauma of Princes William and Harry as they walked behind the coffin of their mother Diana. The pain, I keep picking up, likely hasn’t abated in substantive ways. (Currently, it is agreed, placing them in that forever visual of their personal histories was thoughtless and cruel.) Here we are. It is said that boys marry their mother and Harry seemed to do exactly that in choosing Meghan Markle. Like Diana, she was never going to fit in. There was going to be lots of hurt to go around.  The surprise, though, is that the supposedly less fragile William might also have married his mother in choosing Kate Middleton. We don’t know that, do we? But there is reason to speculate that’s might have been exactly what occurred. Amid the conspiracy theories circling about MIA Middleton (There has been a recent photo op of her mother driving her in car), is this one in the 03-...

The Elite Psychics - Cassanda Vanzant Provides Solution for Getting Clarity, Finally

Image
  Ever since The New York Times saluted the Tarot in April 2021as a tool for self-awareness and introspection, there has been massive interest in psychic readings. More recently the media designated psychics as the new therapists. However, that left those seeking guidance in a pickle. The issue is: How to select a psychic who is 1) authentic 2) caring and 3) will provide the results you need.  Long-time psychic Cassandra Vanzant observed that confusion. Her Ah-Ha moment was to develop a fresh approach to the "delivery" of the psychic connection. That is The Elite Psychics.  Excited about this breakthrough development in psychic services, I requested an exclusive interview with Vanzant.  *************************************************** THE ELITE PSYCHICS Q: With all the internet psychic sites to choose from, what makes your site, The Elite Psychics, different? A: I’ve worked for quite a few of these psychic online companies. Most prefer quantity over quality. ...

J. Michael Cline's Pain

Image
"Fandango founder [J. Michael Cline] left heartbreaking suicide note before jumping from NYC luxury hotel: ‘I can’t explain the pain’" -  New York Post , July 18, 2024  Cline, a very successful serial entrepreneur, was not alone in being unable to articulate his pain. So many suffering human beings decide to have a Tarot reading because they are unable to tell even themselves 1) What hurts and 2) How overwhelming that pain is. Our society demands that its members always be in complete control. That's the face you have to present to the world. The Tarot reader and the client work together to bring the distress to the surface. The New York Times explained how the Tarot is a tool for awareness.  Sometimes the pain is rooted in the unreal, such as the ruminations of the clinically depressed. They experience themselves as failures, on every level.  It could be temporary. There are those setbacks such the loss of the job.  Or it could be long-term as with chronic hea...
